@peertube Pretty useful things. I'm not a big fan of AI but if it runs locally on instances it's kinda ok, it's actually a good usecase.Nice too see PT improve, there are only 2 features I still miss:1. comment reactions (like, dislike, heart)2. Markdown support in video descriptions (I know other Fediverse platforms probably couldn't handle this well, so it wouldn't be too practical)

I'd like to switch over to another Matrix homeserver from Matrix.org because of their new policy of scanning messages due to the Online "Safety" Act, but seems like I can't find any instance where I can successfully register (they either throw Internal Server Error, closed registrations, or generate invalid email verification link), or at least among those which have a Privacy Policy and seem trustworthy (yes, the majority of homeservers don't even have a Privacy Policy lol). I already looked at around 80-100 homeservers, inluding Unredacted, NitroChat, Bladerunn.in, Discuss.online, Thisisjoes.site and others with no luck.Do you know any good homeservers which have a (reasonable) Privacy Policy and accept registrations? Would love to see some recommendations#Matrix #Chat #ChatService #FosseryTech
